Piq Robot
Far better than having a grizzled veteran by your side, this virtual trainer, developed by French company Piq in conjunction with legendary brand Everlast, tracks punch speed, G-force impact, punch retraction and accuracy, and also analyzes shadow boxing, bag, mitt training, and sparring workouts. $99 piq.com

HAPIfork
Eating slowly is better for you in a variety of ways; this Bluetooth-enabled fork alerts you with indicator lights and gentle vibrations when you are eating too fast. It tracks how long it takes to eat a meal as well as the amount of “fork servings” taken per minute, and its app includes a coaching program to help improve eating behavior in other ways. $49 hapi.com

Under Armour Athletic Recovery Sleepwear
NFL quarterback Tom Brady partnered with Under Armour to create what the maker terms a “sleep system that helps the body rebuild itself while you rest,” by amplifying the effects of “far infrared,” a type of energy that reportedly has a number of physical benefits, including speeding detoxifi cation. $99 underarmour.com

SpeedX Unicorn
The world’s first truly smart bike not only has a vibration control system, but also an integrated power meter to analyze cycling data just like a pro rider does. Together with its built-in sensors and GPS, you can live-track workouts on its 2.2-inch touchscreen cycling computer. $3,000 indiegogo.com

Emfit QS
A non-contact sleep monitoring system that is installed under your mattress, the Emfit generates comprehensive reports about physical recovery, stress levels, and sleep quality. Also tracks nervous system balance, recovery status, and readiness for another exercise so you can choose optimal training intensity for each day and avoid workout injury. $262 amazon.com

Halo Sport
Debuted at last year’s Consumer Electronics Show, these are not just headphones; soft spikes on the interior of the band, called neuroprimers, feed electricity into the motor cortex of the brain and help improve muscle memory, strength, and endurance. $749 haloneuro.com

Digitsole
The first interactive, water-resistant, heated insole, this is controlled via your smartphone. Wearers control the temperature of each individually, and are also able to track steps, log distances walked, and calories burnt, all via the Digitsole app. $225 digitsole.com

LEVL
Those familiar with ketosis (the process of the body burning fat instead of carbs) know why measuring acetone is so crucial. This newest weapon in fat burning tests the amount of acetone in your
